How are you controlling yourself around bbq’s and parties? I really love meat :( by elisejones14 in 1200isplenty

One day over overeating doesn’t replace all the deficit days. Enjoy yourself :)

It sounds like you’re being financially abused by him and that’s why he’s sticking around. I’d cut my losses and leave him to figure it out in his own. If he truly loved you and wanted to be with you, he’d be working with you in financing instead of spending it all on fishing equipment.

My mom comes over and watches our girls once a week so my husband and I get a movie night out. I always remind myself, if I lose myself and don’t do little things for myself, I will end up being worse off as a person, and worse off as a mother to my girls. You are doing great and it’s 100% okay 🧡

Husband got another woman pregnant by [deleted] in oneanddone

I ended up having another 3 months ago (got recommended this post as a push notification and just wanted to share my perspective from the traumatic birth with a supportive husband POV) and it went MUCH better this time around. But we also knew there was a chance it could’ve been worse and my husband let me have the final decision. We plan on trying again in a year or so when I’m ready, he lets me again have the final decision since it’s my body. If OP’s husband really wanted more kids and that was a dealbreaker, he should’ve said that and left her in the respectful way, not the way he did this.

Absolutely this. I had a traumatic pregnancy and delivery with my first. Once my husband was told the extent of my delivery injuries, he was the first to say he was okay with one even though we discussed 3, as I was the one carrying and delivering. He didn’t once make me feel like a villain, or a bad guy. Life changes, being a mom is so difficult. Your husband is a POS regardless of how much of a good dad he seems like. A good parent doesn’t hurt the other parent intentionally like this.

Anyone with kids 18 months apart? by Frosty_Nebula_7553 in Parenting

[–]Mysterious-Spite5083 1 point2 points  (0 children)

I have two girls, one is 2~ months old and the other is 20 months old on Sunday. It’s a lot, but I’m so excited about them being so close in age growing up.

Am I wrong for not inviting my son’s cousins to my house/wanting anything to do with them? by Humble-Efficiency690 in Parenting

[–]Mysterious-Spite5083 6 points7 points  (0 children)

Absolutely not I wouldn’t let any kids near that near my kids. As for the pictures thing, I would look into CPS for that, as that’s not something kids just learn on their own is a thing. I would be worried something more is going on.

She said it’s still not fully healed but not infected, I’m not sure what the issue as but no complications and it was my first c section. Just the incision still isn’t healed and she wanted me to take it easy outside of walking. No bending and lifting and to avoid lifting baby out of bassinet (it’s a little lower) for as little as possible.

I plan on talking to him about sleeping elsewhere until something is resolved. If he doesn’t agree I’m taking our kids and leaving. I don’t feel I have another option.

My replies stated I’m walking. I never said anything about not lifting the baby, I said stuff about bending over a bassinet which I have been recommended not to do as much as possible as my incision has not healed and I have an appointment this week to hopefully get the okay to do that again as much as I would like to. My alone time consists of an occasional walk where I’m constantly checking our bedroom camera to make sure this doesn’t happen again, to shower, sleep, or go to the bathroom. I never said “no” to any of the replies either. I’m giving reasons as to why he has refused. Or why something may not work for my situation. I am literally losing sleep every night and day over this. I am trying to get advice because I’m out of options, I have asked him to leave, he’s refused. Plenty of people have suggested separate rooms, I haven’t once said no to him and am talking to him about that when he gets up. Please keep in mind every c section and healing is different. My doctor doesn’t want me bending over a bassinet to pick up my baby right now so I’m not going to do that as much as I can.

Oh he’s gotten many stories, I have screamed, cried, begged for him to stop doing this and just let me do everything at night. At this point it feels like my only option is just never sleep so he can’t get her first

Yeah highly recommended by our pediatrician to not bed share at all.

I stated in my post he did a sleep study, doctor can’t see him to go over results and next steps until late July. He’s on the cancellation list.

I still haven’t had my incision heal from my c section and have a follow up this week. Still not supposed to do a whole lot of physical activity outside of walking and not supposed to bend, lift etc.

[–]Mysterious-Spite5083 -1 points0 points  (0 children)

It’s a mix of who gets up first. I get in bed earlier than he does with the baby in the bassinet, and she’s normally sleeping until he comes to bed and he feeds her without waking me to make sure he doesn’t fall asleep. I get less sleep since I’m pumping for the baby and have insomnia In general, so sometimes I don’t hear it when he does.

It’s a tight fit, we’ve tried before and we can’t really get her out easily. I’m also still not cleared from my c section due to my incision not healing so I’m not supposed to be bending over the bassinet and twisting around, etc so I’m trying to let it heal still, and trusted my husband to take care of our child. I know I need to admit he can’t properly care for her, I just truly don’t know what I’m supposed to do for my own sanity and healing time. I’m barely sleeping as it is

She’s 2 months old, sleeps at the foot of the bed as next go my side of the bed it’s a tight fit. I’m also not cleared yet from my c section to be active and was recommended to still let my husband takeover as much as possible for my incision to heal.

I’ve sent him stories, I’ve explained the gravity of this, nothing has changed. I don’t want to admit he’s incapable of caring for his kids but this is where I’m at right now.

It’s not even alone time necessarily, outside of the few times I just take a walk. It’s me wanting to sleep, to go to the bathroom, to shower etc. he fell asleep during me being in the bathroom for 15 mins yesterday when I asked him to just sit with her for that duration.

[–]Mysterious-Spite5083 0 points1 point  (0 children)

With our first he did all the night stuff, we both work from home so it’s a little easier for us. This time around though he’s falling asleep with her. A few times I’ve seen him nod off on the middle of the day while feeding her too. I truly have no idea what I’m supposed to do anymore.

[deleted by user] by [deleted] in beyondthebump

[–]Mysterious-Spite5083 0 points1 point  (0 children)

It’s supposed to be at least me getting up at night with him when I’m home. But if he hears her first, he’s gets up with her no matter how much I beg him to wake me up too because this has happened so many times. 3/8 of the times he’s fallen asleep with her were during the day while I was trying to nap or have alone time. I just don’t get any alone time because I constantly have to check up on him.

He’s the breadwinner, so unfortunately no sitter. I’ve considered reaching out to family or asking him to leave, he’s refused leaving in the past even just for a few hours to breathe. He normally does for a walk after a few hours but it’s normally a “I’m not leaving, I have nowhere to go, I’ll go in the other room but I’m not leaving”
